But to Xu Yi's surprise, Sun Xiang only grieved for a few minutes before completely cheering himself up.

He smiled demurely, "It's just a little hardship."

"You can't have your cake and eat it too; similarly... you can't have both status and love."

At this point, a police officer asked curiously, "Your wife is already someone else's body, so will you still touch her in the future?"

"Of course not! I'm a germaphobe."

What do you do when you want to think about it?

Sun Xiang smiled proudly, "I'm a fighter."

My grandpa said this Sun Xiang is someone special.

This is in accordance with proper etiquette regarding porridge.

[Coincidentally, I'm also a follower of the Guanzi school. I was moved by what he just said, so I wrote a poem.]

Even in my early years, I knew hardship was inevitable, yet I still allowed myself to draw paper rolls by the bedside.

Once it enters the cup, it becomes as hard as iron; its fate is sealed and its time will not last long.

After countless selections, I finally found one; my hair stands on end in fury for her beauty.

Today, the stick points to the path we came from; Superman surpasses the earth and even the heavens.

[The person upstairs has a great sense of life~]

Xu Yi's lips twitched as he looked at the comments.

Although there aren't many Livestream Viewers, there's plenty of content to be had.

This is also why AI cannot replace humans.

Sun Xiang's voice crackled again, "My wife said that once the public outcry subsides, that's when you'll die."

No sooner had he finished speaking than another handcuff appeared on Xu Yi's wrist.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Xiang threw the key into the sewer.

"Heh~ Even if you're a total Green Tea b*tch this time, there's nothing the masses can do."

"Sun Xiang, don't go too far!"

An officer behind them, unable to stand by and watch, stepped forward and spoke up.

Sun Xiang raised his head high, "If you dare say another word, you'll lose the secure job you've worked so hard for over twenty years."

The officer was speechless for a moment, and after a struggle with his conscience, he weakly returned to his position in the line.

Sun Xiang then scanned the other officers, "Anyone else want to see the strength of the Yin Family? Feel free to try!"

"Look at what you've got! Ma Chang wouldn't dare talk to me like that."

Everyone lowered their heads, their faces flushed with embarrassment.

Ma Chang almost ground his back teeth to powder.

How pathetic! So incredibly pathetic!

But there's nothing we can do.

The recent account ban has shown everyone the power of the Yin Family.

Even the authorities are helpless, let alone these insignificant individuals.

[Guilt Points +200*20]

In that instant, everyone looked at Xu Yi apologetically.

Sorry, brother, our Stone Particles are only the size of Stone Particles; they cannot support the justice in our hearts.

Seeing their silence, Sun Xiang smiled smugly.

That's more like it!

But Xu Yi had no time to worry about that; he used the consciousness communication system.

"System, are you sure the Cloud-Touching Hand can steal anything?"

[Confirmed, system package after-sales service available~]

"Then I can use my right hand to steal the handcuffs from my left hand, right?"

[???]

The system sent me a black man with a question mark emoji.

[Who taught you to exploit this bug?]

Xu Yi continued, "Then can I steal other girls' hearts too?"

[...]

"Liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys...? Basically, it steals everything. Calling it a conceptual calculation is quite reasonable, isn't it?"

The system ignored Xu Yi, finding the situation too frustrating, and promptly logged off.

I thought I'd use thievery to fall in love, but it turned out to make me rich!

Why don't you go to Myanmar?

"System?"

"Are you still there, system..."

The system didn't respond for a long time, so Xu Yi impatiently took off the handcuffs.

Waste system!

[Negative Emotion Points +200]

Sun Xiang: "!!!"

How did you unlock the handcuffs?

"I'm a King of Thieves, unlocking handcuffs is a piece of cake for me."

Then, under everyone's gaze, Xu Yi put the handcuffs back on his hands.

With a gentle flip of his other hand, the handcuffs were removed.

[Shock Points +100 * 15]

"No, the handcuffs from your Police Station aren't strong enough."

[Negative Emotion Points +100*10]

How exactly did they do that?

[This streamer must be cheating, I couldn't see it even in 8x slow motion.]

[Can the streamer teach me this trick? I'm currently participating in a free shopping event in the USA, and I really need this skill.]

[Streamer, your skills are still too reliant on precise maneuvers. Is there an easier way to escape?]

Xu Yi's gaze sharpened.

Oh no, I triggered a keyword. I couldn't help but blurt it out.

Some brothers, some brothers. There are nine more with such powerful techniques!

Just as Xu Yi was interacting with someone, a fist came flying straight at his temple.

Xu Yi neither dodged nor avoided, but used the "Wild Horse Parts Its Mane" move from Tai Chi to neutralize the attack.

Then, using the Bone Dislocation Technique, they dislocated Sun Xiang's arm, leaving it twisted and knotted like a pretzel.

[Negative Emotion Points +1000]

Sun Xiang scream came from the scene.

This left everyone completely bewildered.

As expected of Son of a Hero, he's incredibly strong.

"You dare assault a police officer?"

"Didn't you attack me first?"

"If you unlock the handcuffs, then I'll have no choice but to take coercive measures."

"I acted in self-defense."

[Negative Emotion Points +500]

Sun Xiang's face twisted into a grimace as he spoke in a threatening tone, "Hurry up and admit defeat, there's still hope. Your only advantage in public opinion is gone now."

"Yeah?"

Xu Yi: "Is the system still online? I want to spend some money."

[Here I am.]

"System, has anyone ever told you that you're materialistic?"

[Beep, initiating a 10-pull.]

"Hey, I haven't said how you plan to spend your money yet."

[Women's underwear +1]

[Women's underwear +1]

[...]

Nine times in a row, the samples were all women's underwear.

Xu Yi's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

He strongly suspected that the system was secretly retaliating against him.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired Master Hacker.]

Xu Yi's eyes flashed with a sharp light; this was the reward he wanted.

[The host has enough remaining Emotion Points for one more Background Editor. Edit now?]

"Edit."

After Sun Xiang's outburst, Xu Yi realized that having a wealthy background wasn't enough; one also needed power.

Therefore, he chose from among powerful figures this time.

After picking and choosing for a while, Xu Yi finally decided on his target.

"Han Tao, Secretary of the Hong City Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Deputy Department Level cadre."

His current Emotion Points only allows him to choose this level of official position.

That damn Sun Xiang! If it weren't for him, I could have built up my Emotion Points even further.

You've already found a way to die.

After calming down, Xu Yi began editing.

Xu Zhou and Han Tao were classmates and roommates at police academy. After graduation, they joined the same Police Station in the same year. After working together on dozens of dangerous missions, they became sworn brothers.

One day, Han Tao was assigned a mission to the Golden Triangle, but Han Tao leg injury flared up. Xu Zhou volunteered to replace Han Tao.

But unexpectedly, Xu Zhou sacrificed his life in the Golden Triangle. From then on, Han Tao was devastated and spent his days in regret and guilt.

During a dangerous mission, Han Tao attempted suicide but unexpectedly completed the mission.

He thus earned a rare First-Class Merit, and his superiors began to take notice of this brave, young, and passionate police officer. From then on, his meteoric rise in rank began.

[Congratulations, Editor-in-Chief successful.]
